Ignoring Baer?

March 18, 1990|By Rene Grady-Marbach.

CHICAGO — As one who participated in the annual South Side St. Patrick`s Day parade with Steven Baer, a major contender in the race for governor, I was disappointed when the Tribune failed to acknowledge his name in its coverage. I think this is just one more example of our ``liberal media bias``

towards any candidate who has the courage to take a pro-life position.

Steven Baer has not had the money for slick TV commercials and advertising like his opponent, Jim Edgar, but his message is getting out to thousands of supporters in spite of the press. I will be watching the Tribune`s coverage of the election on March 20 and I think Steven Baer may have a surprise for the liberal press.
